On the ninth level of the ancestral land were a total of eleven statues.

When Lin Wudao entered, he saw that at the top of the temple was an ancient statue that was 100 feet tall, emitting a powerful killing aura.

On its left and right, five statues were standing.

“This is the God of War?”

Lin Wudao’s eyes glinted as he looked at the huge statue at the top of the temple.

The God of War, Tushan Jue.

A long time ago, he had already become a Heavenly God in the human world. After he died, he became a temple God with the Dao through offerings.

“Hmm?”

Through God’s Spiritual Eye, Lin Wudao narrowed his eyes and fixed his gaze on Tushan Jue’s statue.

He found that a strand of Tushan Jue’s obsession was still hidden on the statue. Even after tens of thousands of years, it hadn’t disappeared.

“Tushan Jue’s true spirit has long disappeared from the world. What is this obsession for? Looks like he still has something on his mind that he is unable to let go of,” Lin Wudao thought to himself.

Then, he continued to look around the temple.

The temple was huge.

Lin Wudao found an ancient and mysterious treasure chest in the hand of Tushan Jue’s giant statue.

Other than that, on the altar below were many jade boxes that contained divine light. Obviously, there were extraordinary things inside.

There were also many well-preserved corpses on the ground and in the surrounding corners. Their cultivations ranged from the Divine Wheel realm to the Demigod realm.

Among those corpses, Lin Wudao found Tushan Feng and Feng Qingtian, who were recorded on the corpse map.

“38 Divine Essence realm corpses, 22 Divine Mystic realm corpses, 12 Extreme God realm corpses, and 9 Demigod realm corpses!”

Lin Wudao’s spirit was lifted as he glanced at the corpses.

This ancestral land was indeed a huge treasure trove.

If he were to collect all the corpses of so many powerhouses, he would make a huge windfall!

Moreover, on Tushan Jue’s altar, there were divine treasures, either divine medicines or divine weapons. Those things would all be his!

However, compared to those things, Lin Wudao was more interested in that ancient and mysterious treasure chest in Tushan Jue’s hand. His intuition told him that there was something extraordinary inside.

Tushan Cangyue and the others didn’t know that Lin Wudao was spying on them. At this moment, they were also carefully sizing up the ancient temple. “High Priest, these are the divine generals under the former God of War. There are a total of ten divine generals, representing the ten races. One of them is the ancestor of the Sunset ancient race. Unfortunately, the other ancient and powerful races have either fallen or abandoned their faith in the Great God. What a glorious scene it would be if we could gather the ten great races again…” Yu Shan sighed and said. His aged eyes were filled with strong longing.

Buzz!

Just as they were looking at the statues, the God of War’s statue at the top of the temple suddenly began to glow.

Then, under the powerful divine might, an illusory figure condensed from the statue.

“Huh? This is… The God of War?”

Everyone’s expressions changed when they saw the phantom on the statue and felt the powerful divine might it emitted.

“High Priest, this is a strand of obsession, not a true spirit,” Yin Siming sent a voice transmission.

An obsession?

Tushan Cangyue was shocked.

She knew that this so-called obsession must have belonged to the Heavenly God of War.

“Greetings, God of War!”

Thump!

After staring for a while, Tushan Cangyue respectfully kneeled.

The God of War was the ancestor of the Great Green Mountain’s Tushan family. As a descendant of the Tushan family, it was reasonable for them to kowtow him.

“Greetings, God of War!”

“Greetings, God of War!”

Yu Shan and the others also kneeled.

“What year is it today? Why are there only people from the Sunset divine race? Where are the other nine divine races?”

His dignified voice slowly sounded.

“Reporting to the old ancestor, the laws of heaven and earth in the Mountain Mausoleum Area have collapsed. After the destruction of the Taicang Ancient Kingdom, there is no longer any order. Of the ten great divine races, other than the Sunset ancient race, the others have either been destroyed or abandoned their faith,” Tushan Cangyue replied.

“Sigh… Time can erase all traces. Of the ten great divine races of the past, only the Sunset ancient race is left now. What about the Great Green Mountain’s Tushan family? What’s the situation with them now?”

Tushan Jue continued to ask.

“Old ancestor, I am Tushan Cangyue, the current High Priest of the Great Green Mountain’s Tushan family. Ever since the God of Great Green Mountain was revived some time ago, the Qingshan tribe has begun to develop and expand. Now, we have almost unified Thunder Swamp. There are more than 200,000 clansmen, but less than a hundred truly have the Tushan family bloodline.”

Less than a hundred?

Hearing this, Tushan Jue let out another sad sigh.

“It seems that after I died, the Mountain Mausoleum Area and the Tushan family changed a lot. Tushan Cangyue, stay here. The rest of you, retreat outside the temple. My obsession can no longer be maintained for long. It’s time to tell you something.”

Boom!

Saying this, Tushan Jue waved his hand. A mighty divine power surged out, sweeping Yu Shan and the others out of the temple.

At the same time, the temple doors were tightly shut.

“Tushan Cangyue, my time is tight. My following words are very important, so you have to listen carefully.”

“Yes!”

Tushan Cangyue nodded and focused all her attention.

After a while, Tushan Jue’s voice sounded again.

“What I want to tell you today is the secret behind the great change in the Mountain Mausoleum Area. A long, long time ago, the laws of heaven and earth in the Mountain Mausoleum Area had been forcefully tampered with. A long time ago, the Tushan family had an extremely glorious period. It can be said that we once ruled the entire Mountain Mausoleum Area. The ten ancestral lands of the Tushan family were built in that era.”

“At that time, our race had countless divine cultivators. There were tens of thousands of Heavenly Gods and quite a few Divine Kings. However, something happened later, causing our Tushan family to lose control over the Mountain Mausoleum Area. After that, the Tushan family split. The ten great Heavenly Gods each occupied an ancestral land and fought against each other. This eighth ancestral land is guarded by me.”

Ha!

The Tushan family had such a glorious time when they had countless divine cultivators and thousands of Heavenly Gods?

Hearing that, even someone as calm as Tushan Cangyue couldn’t help but feel shocked.

“Ever since I took control of the eighth ancestral land, my branch of the race has grown and expanded. At its peak, we had more than a billion people, truly dominating a region. Even the Taicang Ancient Kingdom could not be compared to us. However, good times don’t last long. At the most glorious and peak time, the Mountain Mausoleum Area welcomed an uninvited guest.”

“A living being from the outside world sneaked into the Mountain Mausoleum Area through the Immemorial Divine Well. A wisp of his true spirit was placed on the laws of the Mountain Mausoleum Area. To recover his strength and reconstruct his body, that person began to covet the origin of the Mountain Mausoleum Area and tried to refine the entire Mountain Mausoleum Area. He secretly branded the Mountain Mausoleum Area’s living beings with a law imprint. Later on, his actions were noticed by the Divine Kings of the Mountain Mausoleum Area, so we started a war of life and death with that person. In that war, I unfortunately died.”

“Later, with the offerings and sacrifices of the Tushan family, I rebuilt my temple God Dao. After ten thousand years of accumulation, 1 became a temple God. After reaching the peak of level 10 True God, all the True Gods in the Mountain Mausoleum Area joined forces once again to start a war against that person. This is the origin of the Heaven Crusade War. Unfortunately, that person controls the laws and part of the origin of the Mountain Mausoleum Area, and so we lost again.”

Tushan Jue slowly explained.

Ha!

Hearing his words, both Tushan Cangyue and Lin Wudao were shocked.

The secret of the Mountain Mausoleum Area was finally revealed..
